    Default Haraella retrocalla

    I love this little guy! I got him last June, and he's been contantly sending out new spikes. Plus he's so cute, he reminds me of a little bee. He has a kind of lemony fragrance.

    Thanks! Oh, and for anyone who's never seen one in person, this is a true mini--not nearly as big as he might seem in these photos. About 6 cm high, the longest leaf is 6 cm long. The flower is 2 cm long. My friends who aren't into orchids can't believe this plant is mature enough to bloom.

    Love this species . These little guys bloom all the time, are easy to grow, and are so cute.
